How to do pop before smtp with Zend Mail ?

Question

Hi All

I just started to use Zend Mail Compoment and i need pop before smtp, but in the zend mail doc no mention about that.

Can anyone advise on that ?

Thanks

POP before SMTP is not part of the SMTP standard, it's just a hack used to check that the client connecting to the SMTP server has valid credentials, without using SMTP's own authentication mechanisms.

Just use the Zend framework to open the POP mailbox yourself, and then send the mail via SMTP.
